It's normal for cuttings to show some signs of stress from transit, such as wilting, yellowing, or slight browning. This doesn’t necessarily mean the cutting isn’t viable—the node is the most important part, and it’s often still healthy and ready to grow.

If temperatures in your area are expected to drop below 50°F (10°C), I strongly recommend adding a heat pack to your order. You can find one in the shop or add it during checkout as a shipping upgrade. This helps protect your plant during transit and reduces the chance of cold-related damage.
